You can get your beer at Loblaws, that's essential for food...... and beer.
Now the brewers themselves, except for their hand sanitizer lines may be closed.

Given Doug's obsession with alcohol, it will be interesting to see if brewers, the Beer Store and/or the LCBO are on the list. If they are, will grocery stores still be able to sell it? Their supply would dry up pretty soon regardless. Look for a resurgence of home brewing!
Currently, for those in quarantine, they can order for delivery from brewers, the Beer Store and/or the LCBO but not from grocery stores.

Yeah well there is a Beer Store next to me, whereas the Loblaws and LCBO is 1km away.
I guess it is time to not take any chances and to stock up.
Someone say a prayer for all the aged collector wine that is going to be cracked open over the next 6 months.
We've got a couple of bottles of some collector wine ... I told my spouse that it could come to that! As all of this unfolds, alcohol is becoming an increasingly essential commodity. How are sales at the Ontario Cannabis Store doing?

“We will not lose this battle,” Mr. Ford said Monday. “We will get ahead of it.”
The Ontario Premier suggested that some construction sites would remain open, but urged workers to leave sites if their employers have not brought in social distancing measures or are forcing them to make do with unsanitary washrooms.

There are still a few question marks that hopefully will be resolved tomorrow.
I work in the contract security industry (specifically condos) and while we are not essential like Police, Medical or Fire services we are essential in the preserving life safety in high-rise residential buildings.
It is hard for me to explain but suffice to say that if a major emergency occurs in an unstaffed high-rise condominium building people could potentially die. The service we provide while not technically essentially is critical to saving lives in an emergency along with mitigating major emergencies from occurring.
Imagine if a pipe bursts and nobody is here to turn off the water or if a fire occurs and nobody is here to alert the occupants of the building.
It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

The LCBO and Beer store are open, though I think with reduced hours.
^^^ And restricting the number of people in the store at any one time.

Proposed Federal Bill to give special powers to the finance minister to unilaterally change, lower or raise tax rates without approval of parliament.

That is very eyebrow-raising.
That's testing the outer limits of Constitutionality and seems, to be charitable, highly questionable.
Total usurpation of Parliament.
Liberal bill on coronavirus would give feds power to spend, tax without parliamentary approval - National | Globalnews.ca
A small number of MPs from all parties are set to debate the coronavirus support bill on Tuesday.

I'm sure Harper is watching with a mixture of glee, and disgust (that he didn't get the chance to do this).
